Chapter 568 It's Time to Establish Jinzhou! [Seeking Monthly Votes]

"It's really interesting. The current hussar general of the Han Dynasty captured a golden sword made by the Huns in the Xianbei camp and used to deal with the first hussar general... This buff is so stacked that it's overflowing."

In the restaurant, Mu Guiying looked at the golden knife seriously and asked Zhou Ruotong:

"Sister Zhou, can this knife be displayed at the National Museum?"

Compared with other cultural relics, this golden sword that exalts the power of the great Han Dynasty should indeed be taken out and shown to people in the real world, but this also involves the origin of the sword.

Even if the old man covers it up, it will not be easy to explain.

It can’t be said that the shameless Xianbei people stole the tomb of the Xiongnu Chanyu and was later captured by the heroic Lu Qiaoqi, right?

Zhou Ruotong took a few photos and focused on the inscriptions on them:

"I'll ask grandpa when I get back. If possible, I would also like to send it to the National Museum for display."

Forced by Huo Qubing to forge the Golden Sword and Mingzhi, one can imagine the deterrent effect that the Han Hussar General brought to the Huns.

Lu Bu said:

"If you're not busy, please find me some information on labor camps and the like. I'll study it. Suddenly managing so many alien races requires a good control, so that they can't rebel, and at the same time, they can't die too simply, so as not to delay the project. ”

Li Yugang was about to check relevant information, when Liu Xie suddenly said:

"Don't go to such trouble. Just let the surrendered Southern Xiongnu be responsible for managing Xianbei. They are sworn enemies. Now they have the hatred of raiding ancestral graves. They will definitely do their best to discipline them."

This proposal made Lu Bu's eyes light up:

"What a great idea. Let the Southern Xiongnu do all the excessive things. We big men can just continue to play the role of aloof and cultured people. Perfect!"

Zhou Ruotong said:

"The Xianbei people will definitely try their best to curry favor with the Han people in order to have a better life, while the Southern Huns will try their best to show favor to the Han people in order to seize the power in their hands... This management method is indeed good."

Li Yu reminded:

"You can play like this at the beginning, but as time goes by, various conflicts will definitely arise. When the labor reform is completed, as long as the Xianbei people who yearn for the Han want to change their beliefs and are sincerely willing to join the Han, we can give them a chance to survive."

"Don't worry, dear brother, with Lao Zhang here, we will definitely not get away with it."

Are you treating Zhang Daoling as the Discipline Inspection Commission?

After eating the stewed noodles, Lu Bu hurriedly left the real world and began to organize troops to search Xianbei's camp overnight to prevent any fish from slipping through the net.

Li Yu and Zhou Ruotong put the golden knife into the vault.

As for the chair Lu Bu brought, which took up too much space, Mu Guiying carried it to the warehouse and covered it with a raincloth to prevent the patent leather from rubbing off.

Liu Xie returned to Chang'an and used the intercom to tell Jia Xu and others about Lu Bu's results.

In less than half an hour, the core figures of the imperial court, including Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Yang Biao, Cai Yong, Tian Feng, etc., rushed to the palace overnight and held an impromptu meeting with Liu Xie and Lu Zhi, who was guarding the safety of the palace.

At the gate of Weiyang Palace, Ma Chao took off his fur-collared cloak and put it on Ma Dai, who had accompanied Guo Jia:

"You have learned a lot from Mr. Fengxiao, right?"

Ma Dai bowed his hands to Ma Chao and said:

"Brother Qi, I should tell you what I have learned, but it is the duty of our Secrecy Bureau to disclose anything to outsiders. Please forgive me, brother."

Ma Chao laughed, took out a few country bumpkin eggs and pork belly sausage from his arms and stuffed them to Ma Dai:

"Don't leave me here pretending to be an adult... This so-called instant noodle partner, you can try joining us for a late-night snack later. I won this from Teacher Sun in a card game a few days ago. He has a bunch of weird snacks. , I heard that my husband and I often ate it when we were in school.”

Ma Dai looked at the packaging according to the light in the room and asked doubtfully:

"Hillbilly? Isn't this a curse word?"

"Not really. It's just a kind of self-deprecation. Just like our Xiliang Ma family, in the eyes of the Central Plains gentry, we are also country bumpkins, or country bumpkins from the Zahu area."

Just as he was talking, Deng Zhi came over in a hurry. He had been delayed for a few minutes while charging the battery car at the door.

Ma Chao also gave him a few pieces of ham and braised eggs. Deng Zhi thanked him and asked in a low voice:

"I heard that Marquis Wen ate a Xianbei tribe in Bingzhou. What are the details of this matter?"

He only knew a rough idea but didn't know the details, so he was eager to understand the whole process... He wiped out a Xianbei tribe in an instant and captured tens of thousands of people. The big man was really different. In the past, when he encountered such a war, he could not wait to kill him. It had been blowing for three days and three nights, but now it seemed like just a trivial thing had happened.

Ma Chao said:

"Let's wait until tomorrow morning to listen specifically. I probably won't be able to hear it tonight."

The people in the palace must be discussing the follow-up matters now, or they may find out the location of other tribes through Tuoba Xianbei's head search, and conduct an off-season raid before spring has begun.

Clothes in the real world are sold out of season, so it’s normal for us to conduct an out-of-season sweeps here, right?

Just as he was talking, the imperial kitchen brought a basket of freshly baked prune and vegetable sesame cakes, as well as fresh meatball soup. Xiao Huangmen saluted Ma Chao:

"His Majesty specially ordered to warm up some of you."

Ma Chao pointed to the main hall and asked:

"What about them?"

"We are eating hot pot. His Majesty said that if you want to eat, you can come in."

Ma Chao quickly waved his hand and refused:

"No, just get us a small table."

Soon, two small Huangmen brought a table. Ma Chao put the meatball soup and sesame seed cakes on it, and took Ma Dai and Deng Zhi to eat together.

After just two bites, the sound of tiles came from the roof. The three of them immediately put down their chopsticks and stood guard at the door with weapons. The nearby guards also ran over, and four or five drones flew into the sky. Only then did everyone I noticed that a night owl was passing by.

A false alarm... Deng Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. He had no idea that the palace's defenses were so tight. At the slightest sign of trouble, not only would guards appear immediately, but so many drones would fly up that he could grasp all the developments instantly.

Ma Chao took a sip of meatball soup and said:

"This is all the result of General Lu's training. Although the previous General Dian also paid attention to protection, he only focused on personal force. General Lu is different. He established a rapid response mechanism according to the military training methods of later generations. Once there is an accident, Ninety-nine percent of emergencies can be solved if everyone does their part.”

Ma Dai doesn’t know much about this aspect:

"What about the remaining one percent?"

"The remaining one percent is for His Majesty to go to the real world as soon as possible. As long as he can leave safely, there is still a chance for a comeback even if the entire army is wiped out."

In the hall, the steaming mutton-shabu pot drives away the coldness of early spring.

Yang Biao asked:

"So many Xianbei people are not easy to manage. How about rebuilding Heyin County and turning it into an autonomous county for foreigners, so that the foreigners can take care of themselves?"

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia shook his head and said:

"That's not right. They only care about their own people. In the end, they are all in harmony. All those who submit in the future will be Han people, and they will be treated equally. As for those who don't submit, just send them to reincarnation. They are evil people in this life, but they may be good pigs in the next life. Woolen cloth."

Even if the aliens die, they can still be put into the animal realm. This will enrich the Han's breeding industry and give the aliens a chance to indirectly forgive their sins.

Xun Yu took a chopstick of vermicelli from the pot and put it in his bowl:

"I agree with Marquis Wen's opinion. We should build military settlements first. After the development is almost complete, we can then rebuild Heyin County as a matter of course. If we build the county now, it will affect the efficiency of land reclamation."

With a county, there is an additional administrative unit, and it is more troublesome to manage it directly.

But if it is a military camp, then the garrison in Bingzhou can directly participate in the management. Even if the Xianbei people are interrogated again, it will not be difficult.

Jia Xu said with a smile:

"Heyin County can be released first, but the area north of Wuquan County where the Xianbei tribe was captured this time can be included in the territory of our Han Dynasty."

Hearing the word "territory", everyone's attention was aroused.

"Mr. Wenhe, how do you draw it?"

Opening up territory and expanding the territory, this is a great achievement. Later, Your Majesty can go to the Ancestral Temple to brag in front of the ancestors.

Jia Xu put down his chopsticks, stood up and came to the huge Han map. He picked up the small bamboo pole next to him and pointed at Shangdang and Taiyuan areas and said:

"According to Mr. Li's idea, Jinzhou will be established based on Taiyuan County, Shangdang County, Yanmen County and Xihe County to facilitate management. As for merging states, continue to expand northward."

He took a bamboo pole and drew a line near Hangai Mountain:

"The territory of Bingzhou can reach here, and the entire Bingzhou will become a vast pasture, providing a steady stream of various meats for the Han people. The Jiuyuan area will later be a vegetable growing area, transporting vegetables to the Bingzhou grassland. As for grain... after the increase in production , Jinzhou’s food is enough to feed Bingzhou’s troops, which is better than a puddle of mud now.”

Nowadays, the prosperous Taiyuan Shangdang area cannot develop, and Dingxiang Yunzhong County cannot freely develop animal husbandry. The entire Bingzhou management is too extensive and should be split into several smaller states to facilitate vertical management.

Jia Xu's proposal was approved by everyone. If it were split like this, Jinzhou would be able to develop with all its strength, while the other side of the grassland would also be free to compete with foreign tribes for territory.

At this time, Liu Xie also came up with an idea:

"Bring Shangjun under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, establish a petroleum captain, and comprehensively manage the development of the oil base... The entire Shangjun is to serve the oil base."

Xun Yu asked a question:

"After the establishment of Jinzhou, who should be the governor?"

Jia Xu had already prepared for this question:

"Fufeng Ma Teng is a loyal and good man, and he can be appointed as the governor of Jinzhou. As for the position of Fufeng County's prefect, Sima Fang, the former city gate captain, will take the post."

Now that Ma Chao and the others have been trained, they can safely send Ma Teng to other places as officials.

The Sima family is new here, and they are placed under their noses, so they can manage it better.

Tian Feng suggested:

"Ma Teng is senior, and the generals who partner with him must be able to suppress him. Who do you think can serve as the captain of Jinzhou?"

Needless to say, this candidate was Gao Shun who was stationed at Jingxing Pass.

No matter how senior a person is, he cannot do whatever he wants when faced with a stubborn person like Gao Shun. In addition, Xun You, the governor of the Shangdang Party, is very resourceful, so there will definitely be no internal strife.

Cai Yong felt that the prefect of Yanmen could also be replaced:

"Let Guo Mian come to serve in the court and be exposed to our new knowledge, and choose someone from the court to be the governor of Yanmen. What do you think?"

Guo Mian has contributed to these battles. Now it is time to come to Chang'an to study for a while.

Jia Xu took the pointer and continued to make arrangements:

"The southern half of Yanmen County is divided into Jinzhou, and the northern half and Dingxiang are combined into a new Yanmen County. As the county governor, Mr. Zhongde can serve concurrently. He loves that land deeply, so let him Let him stay there."

The Xiongnu Zhonglang will be stationed in Yanmen County, which will not only be able to clear the grassland better, but also put pressure eastward and gradually encroach on the boundaries of Youzhou.

With this division, the entire Jinzhou area became clear. Xihe County to the east of the Yellow River, together with Taiyuan County, Shangdang County, and part of Yanmen County, together formed Jinzhou.

The area west of the Yellow River was incorporated into Shang County, which would become a military base for the Han Dynasty to station troops and train soldiers, and to protect the safety of the oil base in all directions.

As for the area north of Xihe County, it was all assigned to Bingzhou to enrich their area for farming and planting.

After discussing these, everyone went back to rest.

At the court meeting the next day, Ma Ritian, who had received the news, personally announced the good news that Lu Bu had destroyed a tribe of Xianbei:

"A few months ago, the Xianbei royal family humiliated our general with the word "Han dog". Now we have endured the humiliation and finally recovered a little interest. When we are strong and powerful in the future, we will make the entire Xianbei tribe pay the price for our frivolity!"

Just listening to Ma Ritian's narration, it seems that the court has suffered a great loss, but in fact, the royal family died less than five minutes after scolding Han dog, and the mount was sent to the world of Water Margin and became Lao Guan's Red Hare No. 2.

The saber was even put into the safe by Li Yu.

Now attacking has nothing to do with enduring humiliation. It is purely to find this tribe, and then the cavalry will attack and take it away in one wave.

The original refreshing mode, spoken from Ma Ritian's mouth, seems to have become a story of revenge with deep hatred and deep hatred.

This is the art of language, and it can also shut up all those who have sympathy for the Xianbei in the court.

Don't talk about "A country that loves war will perish even if it is big". We are the ones who suffer losses, and we have not yet taken real revenge.

Sure enough, under the leadership of Ma Ritian, a group of old ministers asked for orders to carry three-foot-long swords and chop off the heads of the Xianbei foreigners to enhance the prestige of our Han Dynasty.

Even Cui Lie, the father of Cui Zhouping, who was nearly eighty years old and walked unsteadily, asked to go to war. After being politely rejected, he insisted on donating a thousand hu of grain to support the soldiers of Bingzhou.

Everyone is a smart person. The reason for holding a grand court meeting today is definitely not to let everyone shout slogans, so Cui Lie took the lead in donating a thousand hu of grain, which was regarded as an example for the court officials.

As soon as he finished speaking, other court officials also donated money and materials, hoping that the Han army would soon pacify the Xianbei tribes and conquer the homeland occupied by foreigners.

As he was speaking, Zhuge Xuan stepped out and asked to serve as the governor of Yunzhong County.

He was originally the prefect of Fengyi County. He came to Chang'an to report on his work. He took a look at Zhuge Jin's letter and was excited. He was ready to join the border and help the Han Dynasty defend the north gate.

Giving up the favorable conditions of Fengyi County and choosing Yunzhong County is a big difference, but a gentleman should have the heroic spirit of going even if there are thousands of people, and should not calculate gains and losses everywhere.

Liu Xie was very satisfied with Zhuge Xuan's initiative to ask to go to the border:

"When Langya is recovered in the future, your ancestors will be arranged as city gods, and they will enjoy generations of incense and offerings!"

Volunteering to go to the border is worthy of recognition, but without military merit, you cannot be granted a title of nobility. If you hold the seal, it seems like you are going to supervise Zhang Liao and Cheng Yu, so you might as well be granted a god position.

For the Zhuge family, the god position is not unfamiliar. After all, Zhuge Liang was Tianshu Star after his death, the kind of person who served in the heavenly court.

After Zhuge Xuan served as Yunzhong County, the position of prefect of Fengyi County was vacated.

Many court officials were eyeing this position, but neither Liu Xie nor Jia Xu made further arrangements, and Xun Yu and the head of the Shangshu Province, Cai Yong, did not mention it.

Obviously, there is another candidate for this position.

Everyone discussed other things in the court, such as water conservancy construction, bridge construction, reclamation and planting after the spring, etc. Liu Xie also asked everyone to pay attention to the greening of winter wheat, and if there is any accident, it must be reported in time.

Although Liu Xie is not an agricultural expert, he can go to the real world to ask Wang Shengli and others for advice, or simply shout to the sky, "Grandma, help me", and the problem will naturally be solved.

At the end, Taiwei Yang Biao proposed that the position of Cavalry Commander was idle, and according to the law, a new general should be arranged to take up the new post.

Liu Xie said that he was not in a hurry, and a new Cavalry Commander would come soon, and he would become the main force to attack Jizhou.

A few days ago, Lu Bu, Liu Xie and Yuwen Chengdu held a small meeting in the real world, and finally decided that Yuwen Chengdu would be responsible for attacking Jizhou, and the general of the cavalry, Lu Bu, would attack Yizhou.

In addition to making it convenient for Lu Bu to trade in supplies, he was also thinking about Li Su who went undercover in Yizhou.

He was going to get some military merits for his good brother, and then return to Chang'an... Of course, given Li Su's personality, he would probably go to the northern grasslands to join forces with old acquaintances such as Zhang Yang for warmth.

For those of them who came from the border, the gentry had too many tricks, and their brain cells were not enough, so it was better to go to the border to deal with those blockheads.

Yang Biao had read "The Story of the Rise of Tang" and knew Yuwen Chengdu, but the court officials didn't know that he was raising this topic at this time purely to pave the way for Yuwen Chengdu's appearance.

After the grand court meeting ended, everyone left the palace in twos and threes.

As usual, Guo Jia went to the mutton soup restaurant opposite to replenish his breakfast.

In addition to Ma Chao, Ma Dai, and Deng Zhi, Zhuge Xuan, who volunteered to go to Yunzhong County, came with him this time.

"Come, come, drink some hot soup to warm yourself up. When you get to Yunzhong, you can drink mutton soup every day. I will prepare 100 kilograms of dried chili peppers for you so that you can have endless mutton chili peppers."

As they were chatting, the full-band intercom hanging on Ma Dai's waist rang:

"A fully armored knight came to the door, accompanied by an old couple, saying that they came to surrender to the court and worship Mr. Wenhe as their teacher."

When Guo Jia heard this, he quickly picked up the intercom and asked:

"What does he look like? Is his face as red as a date, like he's drunk?"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Fengxiao, do you know this person?"

"Yes, he's the talent we're looking for... You brought him to the mutton soup restaurant in person. He must be tired and hungry after traveling all the way here. It's time to drink some hot soup to warm himself up."

Ha, the little Guan Yu Wei Yan who has been in love and hatred with Brother Liang for a lifetime has arrived in Chang'an!
